rails showing . instead of / in url

I have a static_controller with index action where an id is needed

My routes

  get 'faqs' => 'static#main'
  get 'faqs/:id' => 'static#index'

but if I use this path faqs_path(faq_id) I get

http://localhost:5000/faq.1 instead of http://localhost:5000/faq/1

Could someone tell me how to fix this. Thank you..

You may need to name them properly:

get 'faqs' => 'static#main', as: 'faqs'
get 'faqs/:id' => 'static#index', as: 'faq'

Normally you do this with resources where you try to adhere to REST conventions, but in your case if you really need them this way you'll have to coach the router.

Check with rake routes that the names are correct. You may have been calling faqs_path with the id going in as the optional :format specifier.

Can you try. faqs_path(:id => faq_id)

I think your problem here is same routes name, you can change your name as:

get 'faqs/:id' => 'static#index'
get 'faqs' => 'static#main'

to

get 'faq/:id' => 'static#index'
get 'faqs' => 'static#main'

And your path is: faq_path(faq_id)

Tell me if it didn't work.
